Bust out the Flip cam: it’s Swede Fest 7
It’s that time again. The Dumb Are Mostly Intrigued by the Drum announced today that submissions for Swede Fest 7 are now being accepted.
You remember what sweding is all about, right? You recreate your favorite movie scene using whatever video camera you have, and whatever low-budget props and costumes you have on hand. Submissions are then shown at a film festival called Swede Fest.
This season’s festival will take place Saturday, May 14, at Full Circle Brewing Company in downtown Fresno. Like always, it’s free and open to all ages.
DVD and/or digital submissions are due Monday, May 9, so start thinking about which film (or T.V. show or whatever) you’d like to Swede. Details and rules can be found here, and past entries can be found here. Just to give you an idea of how popular Swede Fest has become, last November’s event had 15 entries, and Starline was packed with attendees.
After the jump I’ve included a few videos from Swede Fest 6, including Raising Arizona, which was mine and my brother’s entry. See? If a lowly blogger like myself can make a Swede, you can too.
Raising Arizona
The Three Amigos
The Breakfast Club
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
Psycho
The Big Lebowski
